Pasta Porn & Gamberone

This couple this morning were swimming right out in front of where we enjoyed them. They looked like they were enjoying themselves too

Hey folks it’s been a long Monday. Started out early and by 1:00 PM we had tasted two dozen wines. We’re heading South from Marche through Abruzzo and on, hugging the Adriatic coast. The past few days I have had more pasta than I’ve had in months. But I am in Italy, where you don’t have to ask twice for them to make it the right way. A late run on the beach (more photos from what I found, coming) and back into Ortona to try a little more pasta and a little more seafood, along with some auchtochtono wines, Pecorino, Cococciolo, a Rattafia of Montepulciano and Amarena, finished off with a taste of a grandfather’s solera of vino cotto. And again another post. I’m posting as fast as I can , making the appointments in time, figuring out how to get there and trying to find time to eat, sleep, exercise and blog.
